Oddballs Tattoo and Piercings

I made an appointment with Annika at like 11pm and was in her chair basically 12 hours later. went on Mother’s Day and I am immensely grateful for the available appointment.booking is process is incredibly easy. The place is such a vibe, it’s so clean and visually interesting. You could forget your phone and spend hours looking at all the art. I walked in like a bobble head and I felt like I was still missing everything.I’ll definitely be back. And I’m telling all my friends!!!!

My piercer was Annika , she was truly the sweetest and most helpful lady fr. i went and got a naval piercing!! very clean and looked gorgeous inside, smelled good even had a basket of a free snacks, im a sucker when it comes to free stuck ngl. the service was very nice too all my questions were answered with ease & no confusion at all. id definitely recommend this place to friends :3 !!

I have gone to all three tattoo artists and have been pierced by Annika and would recommend this place to everyone, but especially anyone who is nervous or has a sensory processing disorder. The environment is welcoming, clean, calm and spacey. The artists all communicate really well and give direct and clear instructions. Seriously I couldn’t recommend somewhere higher.

I’ve been going to Annika for years for all of my piercings. I live in Fort Wayne and make an hour and a half drive just to be pierced by her. She is always so nice, professional, and does a great job explaining the process. If I could give a higher rating I would.

I’ve been going to Annika for years. I started with her at Grade A and have followed her from shop to shop because I don’t trust anyone else to pierce me. I have also been tattooed by her husband, Ash, and he is just as amazing. I haven’t had any work done by their other artist, but I have met them and they are a whirlwind of fun but professional all the same. Annika has a plethora of knowledge that comes with her piercing and Body modification résumé that I still reach out to her with questions when my piercings start to act up. The community as whole at Oddballs is welcoming and safe. They are willing to listen to concerns and work with clients to make sure each modification is top tier. I don’t even live in the state anymore but will come back to be pierced by Annika in the future.

I have followed Emma from her last shop. She has done 5 of my tattoos so far, and I constantly get compliments on them. She is so outgoing and sweet. Conversations are easy and non-judgmental. Her work is absolutely amazing and I trust her completely as a tattoo artist. She knows her craft very well and will always make something unique to you. I absolutely love her and I plan on going back to her in the future for another one of my tattoos. She is just THAT good.As for Annika, I also stopped in while she was at her last shop with Emma. I was previously turned away by another piercer to have my industrial done. Annika took one look at my ear and with no hesitation said that I could get it done. Throughout the entire process she was so bubbly and friendly, whilst still being informational about the piercing I was about to get. She made it fun, and that was exactly what I needed. I was so nervous due to how others said the piercing would feel. The piercing process wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be because of Annika. Her expertise is just amazing to see in someone. Afterwords, I was sent home with specific instructions and it was so helpful for my healing process. I also forgot to mention, I had previously gotten a daith piercing on the same ear and she checked on the healing for me as well! I’d like to get another one as well from her in the future.Seriously, go check these guys out. You won’t be disappointed!

Fun and welcoming shop. Nostril piercing by Anika started with warm greeting, explanation on technique, sterilization, and made my daughter comfortable in both her choice and mine. High quality jewelry and service.

I have not been to this new location yet but most of my tattoos have been done by Emma Rage, one of the tattooists here at this shop. I love Emma dearly and hope to have much more work done by them in the future 🖤🖤🖤

Absolutely wonder staff! Met all my need and are very caring and understanding! The atmosphere is amazing there. Will definitely be going back. Thank you Emma for the wonderful cover-up! 🖤⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🖤

Everyone in the shop is so nice and make you feel welcome the talent of the artist is amazing I am extremely happy with the tattoo that Emma did and piercings I have gotten from there from Krystel

Went there to have my existing Tragus piercing replaced with a new stud. They had a great selection of earrings to choose from, and were super nice and helpful the entire time! They got the stud switched out for me super quick! Plus this shop is really cute and welcoming!

I am so obsessed with this studio and the staff. Annika is my absolute favorite human and helped me again feel so femine and cute with this permanent eyeliner.LOVE LOVE LOVE IT & HER!Trying to figure out what I can do next so I can hangout more lol Thank you so much for always the best services and making a safe space for me to be myself and be silly.

My 5 year old insisted she was ready to get her ears pierced and Annika took her time to explain every thing to her as she went and honestly I couldn’t imagine a smoother appointment. I’d recommend her and this shop to anyone, especially kids.

Emma is one of my go to artists, but I’m so happy for the whole crew on the founding of this wonderful shop. It’s such a lovely and safe space. Emma has always made me feel comfortable and at ease. Her work never disappoints, whether it’s a fun flash piece or she blows my expectations out of the water on a custom piece.

Love the atmosphere and the open layout. The space has been adorably decorated and speaks very much to the personalities of the artists there. I originally planned a piercing on on side but Annika explained why that placement wasnt ideal and went out to recommend a better spot, which I love. She talked me through the process before and while doing it and put me at ease the entire time. Just a great experience from start to finish. I think this may be my new shop of choice!

I cannot recommend this place enough!! Everyone is so kind, friendly, and makes you feel so comfortable. Just good vibes all around. This is my second tattoo done by Emma and I will follow her to the end of the earth!! Her talent is truly unmatched and she is overall such a great person. Thank you Emma for making the most perfect Edward Tulane tattoo of my dreams!! ❤️

I have been here for both piercings and a tattoos! Annika has done my freckle tattoos and multiple piercings of mine (and will be doing more in the future), it is always a great experience! She is the sweetest human being and is so knowledgeable and thorough throughout the whole process. I refuse to go to anyone else for my piercings. Ashton has done one of my tattoos and it was a large back piece, he did a fantastic job and would definitely come back to him!

Amazing people work here who make you feel so welcomed and loved! They do an amazing job at everything they are skilled in! The artist are so kind and willing to work with you 💕

Got this cute lil neighbor from Emma! Everyone here is so friendly and they make the best art.

I have trusted one of the owners, Annika, with all of my facial piercings! She does such an amazing job with making me feel safe and seen in my before piercing anxieties. I always leave the shop with a sparking, perfectly placed piercing and without fear of rejection because I know how high quality and reputable her work and the jewelry she has is. As well as aftercare knowledge!

Fun, cool environment. I was welcomed all around when I walked in. I got a dermal in the same place Ive had one 3 previous times that other shops wouldnt touch. Annika was very sweet, informative of everything along the way in the process. Out of all the dermals I have had in my life (5), Annika placed the best. It was the deepest one Ive ever gotten, which I love. They are known to reject with the slightest wrong bump but I feel super confident with how deep she placed it that its not going anywhere! I would totally recommend and will be visiting for future piercings.

What a fun experience I had with Annika! She pierced my eyebrow and even squeezed me in for a spur of the moment tooth gem! She was so gentle and talked to me the whole time, I didn’t even feel a pinch. She uses top quality jewelry which is great because my piercing healed up nice and easy, even though I have a reaction to EVERYTHING. I highly, highly recommend her to everyone, and the artists do AMAZING work! Make sure to check them out.

I have gone to Annika for my piercings for years now, and I cant see myself going anywhere else. I know I can talk to her about my wants, and shes always great about listening to them but also makes sure that it works well for me. Her advice is always solid as well when it comes to piercings, and she keeps an amazing and beautiful stock of plenty of jewelry to choose from. If you cant find what you want in-store, shes got a whole lot more to choose from that she can order in for you. I can go on forever about Annika, but all in all, Annika and her team are phenomenal.As for the tattoo artists there, I still have yet to get myself an appointment, but Ive seen their work throughout the years and love all their hard work and dedication to their art. They all have such great attitudes, and I know when I finally get myself in for a tattoo, Ill be well-taken care of.When you walk in, youre immediately greeted with plants, and maybe thats just my own personal opinion, but Im feeling good right off the bat when I see an abundance of plants. On top of that, theres so much art in the building that is personal and really adds to the whole flow of the space. The whole studio has great vibes, and you can tell that they put their whole love and pride into it. I always know Im in good hands when I enter, and I cant recommend them enough.

Annika is THE BEST piercer around! I have very sensitive skin and havent reacted well to other jewelry in the past. Shes gentle, educated and very kind. Truly knows her work!Ashh is also a great artist. He helped me design a tattoo to represent my birthday and was so fun to chat with while he was working.Ill definitely be back again and again and again.

Extremely unprofessional. They act like children. Starting drama and rumors as an adult is weird af. Slandering people for your own gain is a gross attempt and making yourself look better.

I went in to receive three dermal piercings from Annika,and was floored by the quality of service I received! Everyone in the shop was incredibly kind and accommodating from start to finish,and my piercings turned out wonderfully. The energy as soon as you walk through the doors almost reminds me of the way you feel walking into grandmas house- theres a palpable amount of love in this new shop already. Go to Oddballs for immaculate piercings, tattoos,and community 💚

Annika did a fantastic job explaining and piecing ears for my 9 year old daughter. She was so kind and thorough. Her choice of words in explaining the process were something I truly appreciated. She also involved my daughter in the process and empowered her vs just being there to get the service. Love that they also used medical device grade titanium. Highly recommended.

Ethan is such a wonderful welcome and is ready to help in any way possible when you come in and responds to emails pretty fast for each of his artist. I have only been to emma but I love her energy and spirit and she did an amazing job on my mother in laws memorial tattoo highly recommend and she has a super light hand! Over all love the atmosphere when you walk in to oddballs! Cant wait to go back!

I took my daughter to get her ears pierced by Annika and she did amazing! She did a great job coaching my daughter through it and had a great attitude. The people at the front were also so friendly and nice and the aura of the whole shop was incredible! I definitely highly recommend this place 😊

I’ve been going to Emma for years, and she is so incredible. The entire team at Oddballs make the place feel so positive and welcoming and I’m never worried about if my vision for a tattoo will be dismissed. Emma is amazing at her craft and so sweet and nurturing. Her work is incredible and I’m extremely lucky to have her artwork on my body.

We took my 12 year old daughter to have her ears pierced and Annika was AMAZING! My sister referred us because she had done my nieces piercing and they were very happy with the experience. My daughter was nervous but Annika was so kind and communicated through the entire process while piercing, that it set our daughters mind at ease. I highly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for a piercing! We will be repeat customers!

Obsessed with this studio & Annika. She is so skilled and puts so much energy into doing the absolute best and knowing everything about what she is doing. I appreciate her knowledge and making sure everyone is completely comfortable during treatments.She has done my nipples and also my septum (which both have been reserved multiple times so she made me feel comfortable and confident in her doing them again) and also did permanent eyeliner.Was such a great experience and now I’m thinking of what she can do next!Definitely teeth whitening and some more PMU (since I’m out of piercing space I want lol)💕OBSESSED WOTH ANNIKA & HER WORK! Cannot recommend her enough. Seriously. 🙌🏻✨🫶🏻

I’ve gotten most of my piercings from here! Even had my 8 year old get their ears pierced here too. Always had a wonderful experience here and always felt comfortable! They always made sure I liked what I was getting and will accommodate any needs I had! Even when I wanted some difficult piercings lol. Super friendly staff and my go to place whenever I wanna get a new piercing!

This shop is literally the best of the best in the NW region of Indiana. Even if you live within hours of this business, its worth the drive to get work done by any of these amazing professionals. Annika does all my piercings & I wont go anywhere else now or buy jewelry from a store in the mall ever again.

I came here because I’ve heard nothing but SPECTACULAR things about Annika & her work. So I booked with her to get my nip-naps re-pierced (3rd time lol) & it was such a good time.I was so nervous about how bad it would hurt since I kept taking them out but wanted it back, for a final time.Annika made me feel so comfortable with her & her apprentice (she sat in on the piercing which was asked before hand).Annika is the person I recommend to everyone who asks where to get pierced. So professional, made me cognizable & laugh a lot as we were joking a ton, and her knowledge on aftercare & jewelry makes me feel so confident.Will only come to her from now on! Thank you so much Annika!

All of the artist and employees here are FABULOUS!! The atmosphere is wonderful, the work is phenomenal. I’ve personally been tattooed by Emma and Kim, and I can say I am more than satisfied with the work they have done. Overall the best tattoo and piercing shop around💜

Atmosphere was very friendly and nice. she was very helpful and answered any questions i had. definitely coming here again

Such a wonderful friendly shop! Highly recommend Annika for all your piercing needs. Especially your kiddos, she was so sweet and patient and spoke to my daughter and made sure she understood what was going to happen.

Annika has gone above and beyond with my piercings and micro blading. I basically trust her with my life at this point. The workplace environment is fun and relaxing and everyone who works here is an angel. I’ve felt nothing less but taken care of.

Such a lovely establishment with even more lovely owners/employees. Emma is so sweet and comforting , she will talk to you through your whole tattoo and make sure you are okay and comfortable. 10/10 will go again.

Got a great quality tattoo by Kim today and I couldn’t be happier. She made my first tattoo a fun and easy process. I will definitely be back because of the customer service and just the vibe the place has is amazing.

Krystel pierced both of my earlobes and the helix on my right ear, and she did an absolutely fantastic job. Annika pierced my septum, and she knocked it out of the park. The shop was clean and inviting, and all the stafff were kind and professional. Cannot recommend enough.

Got my nose & Helix pierced with Annika. I was extremely nervous. But she was so cool and nice and made me feel relaxed and comfortable. Highly recommend her!

Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Great environment made me feel very comfortable! Krystel did a great job on my piercing will definitely be going back to her again.

Highly recommend this space, Emma is an amazing tattoo artist, as well asthe other tattooers there. Annika and her apprentice are amazing and dont forget Ethan, he is a sweetheart!

The shop is so clean and vibrant. I spent hours here and never felt uncomfortable. I appreciated the available snacks, drinks, bathroom amenities, and ring pop for the long drive home. Ash met my expectations and let me be in my feelings for as long as needed before starting.

My daughter had her septum pierced. We loved Annika! She was professional, informative, friendly and fun! The shop is clean and beautiful!

Emma has done several tattoos of mine and i’m obsessed!! her work is truly amazing. she makes you feel comfortable the whole time and is so kind. 11/10 recommend

Really great place! I had an amazing experience for my first tattoo. Everyone at the shop was so kind and funny. Kim did my tattoo and I loved talking with her. All around great service !

Absolutely love this shop! everyone is very friendly and professional. i have had beautiful tattoos done by emma and just recently got my daith pierced by annika! high recommend!!

I had an amazing time recently with Kim and previously with Emma. Both artists are extremely gifted and offer high quality work at a fair price. I look forward to working with both of them again in the future!

I’ve yet to have a tattoo from here, however I follow them and Emma. I love what I see and all the interactions. My “normal’ artist stopped responding so I will reach out to them for my next one!! Good luck y’all and keep rocking it!!

Love love love this shop , will follow this crew anywhere !! The whole staff has such good vibes going and very interactive .There bathroom has amenities (they have a take what you need basket ) that includes hair ties ,deodorant,socks .which I thought was so thoughtful and made such a good impression .This is my go to shop !! Once you come here you will never want to go to another shop !❤️❤️This shop is full of talent and good energy !!

This is a group of professionals I’ll always travel for. My boyfriend was pierced by Annika and I’ve been tattooed by Emma, all the artists are talented, knowledgeable, and kind. Definitely worth checking out.

Everyone is so creative and talented! Most of all, they are accommodating and professional. I will definitely be continuing to get my piercing, and tattoo needs met here!

This is the only place I’ll ever go! Annika always makes you feel like home and Ash did my handwriting tattoo and it looks identical! The best shop around.

Got a few of my tattoos done by Emma and shes one of the best there is! I absolutely love her and everyone affiliated with this shop

Emma was extremely unprofessional and rude. That’s probably why they get no business and have to leave fake reviews themselves. I would stay away from this place if you’re looking for a comfortable and friendly environment to get tattooed.

Went to get my nose pierced absolutely love it. Staff extremely friendly. Prices reasonable and lots to pick from. Very clean. 💯% recommend.

Got a custom piece of my frogs done by Emma yesterday. Im obsessed. It was exactly what I wanted. 10/10. Cant wait to get back on Emmas schedule.

Amazing people and artists truly love the vibe when walking in and had the best experience with my piercer annika!

Annika and the team there are incredible! Made my daughter feel so comfortable while getting her ears pierced.

I would follow Emma Rage anywhere! The place is adorable, well furnished, and fits the vibe of the space very well. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

They are nice peoples and the vibes in places is cool and just love it and , go there if you need a tattoo and piercing too !!

Im very happy with my daughters piercing experience here. Highly recommend!

Annika is seriously the best piercer! I wouldn’t trust anyone else to pierce me or my daughters

Love the studio; everyone is so kind!

Amazing artists and a great, friendly atmosphere. I recommend Oddballs to anyone who wants a tattoo or piercing.

Emma was amazing!

Excellent work, highly recommended, lovely atmosphere.

Amazing artists, you won’t be disappointed

Best shop in Elkhart!

Great staff!!
